This jewelry designation refers to a specific composition of materials and features of a valuable gemstone set in a precious metal. It describes a piece incorporating a diamond weighing 2.51 carats, authenticated by a recognized gemological laboratory, and possessing natural origin. The setting is crafted from 14-karat white gold, an alloy offering durability and a bright, reflective surface that enhances the diamond’s brilliance.
The value and desirability of such a piece derive from several factors. The carat weight signifies the diamond’s size and contributes significantly to its rarity. Certification provides assurance of quality and origin, mitigating concerns regarding synthetic alternatives or undisclosed treatments. Natural diamonds are formed over millions of years under immense pressure, making them a finite resource. The 14k white gold setting provides both an elegant aesthetic and practical durability, preventing tarnishing and ensuring longevity.
